thank-you!
Those look excellent to me. Well done.
You're right about the first two answers. However, this site indicates that research indicates that total communication is the most effective method for most children with hearing impairment.

Your text, however, may say that total communication is best because parents prefer the flexibility it offers them and their children.
Your answers for questions 1 and 2 are correct:
1. A three-year-old child who is developmentally delayed might:
- B. speak in two-word sentences
2. Which is NOT an example of a developmental milestone?
- D. Roller skating
However, your answer for question 3 is not completely accurate. The correct answer for question 3 is:
3. Total communication might be a better way to teach language to a hearing impaired child because:
- D. There is proof that total communication is best.
While it is true that families usually prefer the choices it allows, the main reason total communication is considered effective is because there is evidence supporting its effectiveness. Additionally, total communication incorporates various methods of communication, including sign language and lip reading, to provide a comprehensive approach for teaching language to hearing impaired children.
Keep up the good work!
Your answers to questions 1 and 2 are correct. A three-year-old child who is developmentally delayed might speak in two-word sentences (answer B) and roller skating (answer D) is not an example of a developmental milestone.
For question 3, while your answer (B) "families usually prefer the choices it allows" aligns with one of the benefits of total communication, the actual reason why total communication might be a better way to teach language to a hearing impaired child is that research indicates it is the most effective method for most children with hearing impairment. The article provided at http://www.ericdigests.org/1998-2/total.htm supports this finding. Your text, however, may have highlighted the preference of families as the reason, which is also a valid point. Therefore, both answers (B) and (D) can be considered correct depending on the perspective emphasized in your textbook or course material.
Overall, you have done a great job!
